Welcome to an additional family member – OSMstats

by Pascal Neis - Published: September 7th, 2014

Maybe some of you are already familiar with “OSMstats”, a website that provides numerous statistics about the OpenStreetMap (OSM) project. The site was created and is maintained by the two guys at altogetherlost.com. However, OSMstats has now been moved to the ResultMaps domain at osmstats.neis-one.org. I added several new features too. First of all, you can now select a specific date for your stats. Secondly, the main menu panel has been extended with a new entry for statistical information about OSM changesets.

Additionally, the graphs for the country statistics, the active members and daily edits are also available in a “year”-overview. I hope you like the new extensions. A big thanks to both guys at altogetherlost.com who originally created OSMstats!

Thanks for all the lovely stats. It would be useful if the site made clearer the time zone of all the graphs. CET, current prevailing European summer/winter/zone, something else? This isn’t meant to sound rude, but when looking at things like daily ebb & flow of contributions it’s useful to know the time zone of the graphing.

I’m not a coder, but it would be awesome if the viewer could set their own timezone so the pulled data could be reset to their local time. If I’m say, in Tokyo then the time in Berlin or Paris has less immediate relevance.

Nonetheless, *thank you* for so generously making all these stats available to a wider audience. 🙂

Is its possible for you to post a similar file with the
“No. of members who are the last modifier of at least one node”.

I really like and get inspired by your articles :
“Analyzing the Contributor Activity of a Volunteered Geographic Information Project — The Case of OpenStreetMap”
and
“The Street Network Evolution of Crowdsourced Maps: OpenStreetMap in Germany 2007–2011”

I would be very happy to compare it with actual values.

Especially. Figure 4: Development of OSM Street Network in Germany by Street Category (2007–2011). from the 2012 Article, would be very interesting to estimate the completeness.

but is it also possible to post a csv with the stats from the node page.
“Nodes in the database”, and “daily changes” would be useful.

Also the values from the country page “Germany” would be
really interesting for me.

Thanks a lot

PS: Sorry for bothering you again and again. But I really like your work around the osm-projekt. I don’t know if you often get those kind of requests, but I would be very happy if you go on with your work. Especially your Articles in Future Internet are a pleasure.
